Phantasy_star_4

I stayed up one day and watched five or six of these episodes and I was not impressed in the least. Neither of the two hosts know a thing about flipping a house. The episodes get really annoying as you want to have a knowledgeable host tell you about the steps to making a broken down home beautiful again. Here we have two people on every single episode asking each other tons of questions they have no answers to "can we fix this, how do we make that happen" all the while a short time later they always ALWAYS have to ask the staff that is working for them for the answers. I understand HGTV wants more family oriented hosts but who the heck picked these people? Oh they look good so lets put them on TV even though they don't know a thing??? A TV program is paying two stooges actual money just because they look good on camera eventually im guessing thinking they will learn the ropes by asking tons of questions. I Don't want to watch a show where Myself and the TV host's have to learn along with me the entire time from a second hand source. Never once have they said anything intelligent about flipping a home. Worst show on HGTV in my opinion.

I heard a lot of rumors when this movie came out about how bad it was. So i avoided it like the plague. I thought of John Travolta like how he was in Battlefield Earth and just passed it by. I ended up watching it many years later because i heard Thomas Jane was actually the lead (never looked it up). I can see why people might have been discouraged when it came out, the scenes in a lot of parts looked like they were shot with a soap opera daytime camera. The acting by the girl in the apartment especially when she was crying (played by Rebecca Romijn) was beyond horribly embarrassing to say the least in her acting ability. I loved the fact that John Pinette received a role in the film, but i have no idea why he was even in the film as he didn't really do anything? The main bad guys were OK, the Russian fight scene was pretty damn good though. I liked that the Punisher was shown as a regular guy with abilities that only suited his training just using them to the extreme. Thomas Jane did a great job with the role and surprisingly John Travolta did as well, he wasn't the biggest bad guy on the block but he was a regular boss type with no special abilities other than having a lot of henchmen. Some characters should have never been on screen, some were alright. All in all i did enjoy this movie for what it was, its not spider man or x men but seems more of a regular action thriller than anything, so i left it as that.
